Equipment for Uganda


We're greatly satisfied to have loaded up our friends' trailer with all the special needs equipment that has been donated for Uganda. Wheelchairs, standers, gait trainers, AmTryke bikes, a fleet of tumbleforms, various seats, trays for wheelchairs, crutches, gloves, chuxs, etc.

We installed a hitch on Josh's dad's SUV. We borrowed our friend's flatbed utility trailer. We were to leave today to start our journey down to VA to put it on a shipment that is going out to Uganda. Thanks to the blizzard, our journey was delayed a day, giving me a chance to catch up on email and even blog for the first time in a crazy month.

Pray for us during this month of travels: Christmas with my family in PA, visits with many friends and churches along the way, taking us all the way down to VA Beach and back! As always, on these trips, I'll be doing all of Gracie's therapies and schooling. Something I enjoy but also find very challenging with the two other precious ones also wanting my full attention!

Pray for us that we would be able to take time together as a family and specifically as a couple to work on our relationships and grow in Christ during this month.

We are in need for funds to complete this project of getting the equipment in Uganda - around $4000 in total. If you would like to contribute to this project, please send your donations through www.actioninternational.org/rattin.

Amanda did so much to gather, deliver, and help to prepare all the equipment for shipment. Thank you!


It all looks much less impressive from this point of view... But it's all on there!
